00:00Have you ever heard the saying, honesty is the best policy, but what if it's not?
00:05Let's talk about Cassandra, a character from ancient Greek mythology.
00:10Apollo gave her the gift of prophecy, meaning she could see the future, the catch.
00:15He cursed her so that no one would ever believe her predictions.
00:19Imagine that.
00:20She knew the Trojan War was coming.
00:23She knew the city of Troy would fall, and she warned everyone.
00:26She was 100% honest about the disasters she foresaw.
00:31But what happened?
00:32People called her crazy, they ignored her, and the very tragedies she predicted came true.
00:37Her absolute honesty didn't save anyone.
00:40It only isolated her and made her seem like a lunatic.
00:43So, maybe being brutally honest isn't always the answer.
00:47Sometimes how you deliver the truth matters just as much as the truth itself.
